Stranded on planes

Update from Bristol Airport about passengers left in planes.

A spokesman for Bristol Airport said: “Heavy snow fell throughout the day and into Sunday night.

“Snow clearing teams have worked around the clock to clear not just the runway and taxiways but also to keep surfaces around aircraft stands free of snow and ice to ensure the safety of staff and passengers when embarking and disembarking flights.
